Gratitude Inspiration

Gratitude is Expressed by Kindness

There are 2 different ways to show Gratitude

  1.  Words
  2. Actions

While I like to hear that people are grateful for the things that I do, I find I am grateful to the individuals that show their gratitude with actions.  Specifically when they show gratitude with acts of kindness.

Gratitude is expressed by Acts of Kindness

The movement Random Acts of Kindness is a wonderful movement.  It gets people to step outside of their comfort zone and help others.  These random acts come with no expectations other than the hope that the recipient will also complete a random act of kindness.  Creating a ripple effect of kindness.  Amazing.

Even more amazing is when someone naturally shows gratitude through acts of kindness.  No expectations of reciprocation, but a genuine act of kindness because the person is grateful for the person he is showing kindness too.  My husband is this type of person.  I on the other had tend to be kind because it is the right think to do.  Over the years I have come to understand that the simple acts of kindness my husband does for me throughout the day are his way of saying thank you, and I love you.  It’s his way of expressing gratitude for me.
